Happy 5th Birthday Big Guy Ry...WOW!


Happy Birthday Ryan!!! Today is going to be jammed
packed with activities and surprises.
First of all, Daddy took the day off work to help get the house
in order for tomorrow's party. Then Mommy will be bringing
cupcakes to the class for everyone.

Looks like the cupcakes turned into a big hit

Then came the big surprise...
On Fridays, Ryan's school has a mystery reader.
All the kids hide their eyes while the mystery reader comes in,
sits down and gets ready to read the kids a story.
No one knows who it is until
they open their eyes.
Let's see who the mystery reader is today...



It's Big Sister Jordyn!!!
I was planning on doing it, but I decided to ask
Jordyn that morning if she'd do it
and she gladly accepted the challenge.
What a win-win situation.

And boy was she a hit with all the kids. We were so proud of her.
She wasn't shy at all. She read slowly and clearly with lots of emotion.
She loved acting like a teacher, showing all the pages as she read.


The kids loved her...especially someone special in the audience.
I think he was quite proud of his sister too.

I think Jordyn made her brother very happy on his Birthday!!!
